Thank you for uniting with us

You have united with us against dementia! And we will let an incoming Northern Ireland Assembly know.

Can you help us a little further and ask your friends and family to unite with us too?

More than 20,000 people in Northern Ireland are living with the profound and devastating effects of dementia, and our health and social care system is failing to provide people with quality care and support.

We want any new executive to put the needs of people with dementia at the heart of reform of social care.

We will get in contact soon about how together we can make this happen.
